<br />City of Pleasanton <br />Recommendations to Management <br />For the year ended June 30, 2005 <br /> <br />Status of Prior Year Recommendations <br /> <br />Communication of Audit Observation to the Housinl! Authoritv <br /> <br />Observation <br /> <br />We noted during our audit that the fixed assets detail listing for the Housing Authority did not tie to <br />the general ledger. This was also the case in prior year audit. The observation was communicated to <br />the City in prior year as well as this year. The City seems unclear on whether this observation was ever <br />communicated to the Housing Authority, by who it was communicated and why it was not addressed <br />by the Housing Authority. <br /> <br />Recommendation <br /> <br />The Housing Authority remains a component unit of the City even if its accounting and other <br />operations are performed by an outside firm. The City is still responsible for ensuring that the audit <br />observations are communicated to the appropriate personnel and that the observations are addressed if <br />feasible. We recommend that the City take all necessary steps to ensure that the records of the Housing <br />Authority and the City agree and that all audit findings are properly communicated. <br /> <br />City Response <br /> <br />We agree with the recommendation. The City finance department will improve communications with <br />the Housing Authority. We have a meeting scheduled between City staff and the outside firm that <br />manages the Housing Authority to discuss this issue. <br /> <br />Status <br /> <br />Not Implemented. <br /> <br />2 <br />
